Evidence - Jim Dean and Throw It All Away (Live at Vevo)

Revered by fans since his days in Dilated Peoples, during the last two decades Evidence has been steadily building an enviable rep in the game. On his own, he’s dropped the acclaimed solo discs ‘The Weatherman’ and ‘Cats & Dogs,’ which included features as diverse as Aloe Black and Raekwon. Now he’s back with perhaps his strongest set of tracks yet. ‘Weather Or Not’ on Rhymesayers boasts strong lyrics and irresistible beats provided by a handful of producers including Nottz, The Alchemist, DJ Babu and DJ Premier. From “Jim Dean” to “10,000 Hours,” it’s a must-hear. We’re celebrating its arrival by having Evidence in our NYC studio, spitting “Throw It All Away” and “Jim Dean” and chatting with Vevo’s Jayson Rodriguez about putting the album together.

[@pbm2324]

Evidence is criminally underrated

[@213byron]

André BM real hip hop heads know wassup

[@kurtfromMichigan]

25 to life.

[@fuerstlife4365]

so true ... one of the best

[@shotbyfabi]

I always enjoyed him, but I used to think he was one dimensional. I hate myself for ever thinking that. I realized how complex his "simple" delivery was. It's incredible.

[@montesmontes]

Great lyricist

[@sammkd]

You can hear it in his voice, speaks straight from the soul, EV will be remembered in time as one of the greatest to ever pick up a pen

[@sohypesheriff]

maybe at picking up pens, but that's where it stops

[@badnewsforya-]

@@sohypesheriff goes to show how much you "understand" :)))

[@chelichnamuda]

I agree.

[@NADEAUTOTHEFRESHHAITI]

Good djòb

[@AirborneMark]

Amazing artist. The world has been sleeping on Ev for years. If you're one of the people bumping to Ev since day dot, congratulate yourself. You're a kinda special type of a person.

[@DuckAlertBeats]

Airborne Mark Triple Optics baby!!!

[@avamiradeocho4631]

Off course

[@dexterhuntington2495]

Aesop rock is the most slept on rap God.

[@JackJack-oi8py]

I got stuck in his delivery back with expansion team with dilated peoples

[@MrRexutube]

yeah since dialated

[@omarcorleone4566]

Evidence is the #1 🔥🔥🔥

[@TheM3Lab]

glad to see Evidence getting noticed

[@electricearth1101]

You mean We got noticed by Evidence cause he remembered hes still the peoples champ so he decided to intervene with our earthly level again.

[@AK_VALLY]

i was 14 years old when i heard Ev, im 31 now.. and i still play his songs on rainy days..

[@electricearth1101]

i play his songs on sunny days and rainy days

[@thecotacompany9671]

The wether man

[@mr.miyagi7912]

is he really spittin live? damn... flawless performance...

[@rollingstart_90s]

Yes he is. I've been listening to the album for a while now and I can tell he is performing it live.

[@namesareirrelevant7358]

Lol. Ev and especially the dilated peoples live shows are legendary... "First came the live show, than came the record... "

[@213byron]

Anyone under Rhymesayer Ent. can flow live flawlessly

[@StreetCliche]

I've asked same question to myself at hip hop kemp 18'

[@The4thLetter]

Love it when the artists spit it exactly how it came out on the record.

[@josephdavis2695]

This is not your thing, this is ours. Gangsters got this thing about flowers. Rappers got this thing about power.

[@emersonsmith8299]

I love that line

[@johnpaulkirenga5824]

For sure

[@airesjone7721]

Words for day

[@chapakazifilms]

Bars

[@treyj966]

When Ev started spitting Throw It All Away, the sun broke through the clouds on this frigid PNW morning and illuminated my living room. Not a coincidence.

[@groundhogx2941]

The weatherman came and saved the day

[@scaredfolks5923]

That shit about growing up was deep. I could hear the tears swelling up. It really hit home.

[@EstherlollitaWilliams]

VEVO we are proud of you for all you do, I have never known any of you personally yet I think what you do for Creators around the world is a great thing. Be Blessed, you, your families and friends, your everything. GOD loves ❤❤❤ You. - Esther

[@emersonsmith5775]

Dude has dealt with a lot....Keep rockin EV!! Much respect

[@PenCliqueMedia]

Mr. Slow Flow. Ev is one of the clearest rappers on mic of all time. I remember watching him live at fat beats in LA, and being blown away how crystal clear man was, this guy takes his craft so damn serious. You feel every line he spits, and the clarity grabs you to listen to him. CA ALL DAY

[@rapchampion4366]

Watching Evidence from the difference of my life , dude’s such a real Champion at Life. The most Important people passed away in his life. And he Still came back hella strong AF. He coulda just stayed there so that’s hella motivation for me. Right On.💥🥊🥊

[@kurtfromMichigan]

👊

[@lukejamesbgn]

Love the new album and these are two of my favorite tracks so it's nice to see them performed live. Evidence came through with one of 2018's early gems!

[@illdrumatik391]

Love your work G. YEAH he did!

[@tylerd1297]

You gotta check the one he dropped this year.

[@orr971]

He's the king of interviews. He gets real. Album is perfect.

[@emersonsmith5775]

Throw it all away....forever a classic

[@elGustoOne]

God bless you and your family Michael.

[@warnutztheloser]

The greatest 💯💯💯❗️

[@ivan.nueve5838]

Respect and love from Argentina! 🇦🇷

[@everything...interesting]

I've seen a lot of live music... and Dilated Peoples might be the best live hip hop group I've ever seen

[@BukezFinezt]

Since the video of Throw It All Away i realised how hard Evidence if fighting. He looks unhealthy in that video and i was wondering whats up. In more and more interview he´s talking about his struggle and the situation with his family. That guy inspired me back when DP started. And till that day he is a unique and strong character. I hope he´s getting back on track! ALL THE BEST BUDDY! And its great to see he uses the music to speak up and relief a few things! Strong shit!

[@SLOTR32]

What was the interview called ?

[@randyjohnson2373]

Didn't think he could top The Weatherman LP.. think he did here! Incredible album and two perfect tracks. Can't wait to see him live.

[@dannyrodriguez9981]

Evidence killed it ! i listen to it everyday man

[@johnjohnson7006]

genuine artist always been dangerous from day one with dialated p

[@vinceconstantine6858]

So much love for Ev for powering through life, and creating something that will last the test of time. A real genuine dude, I remember commenting on his instagram, that one day I wanted to shoot photos with him, he proceed by following up and showing my photography a bunch of love back

[@bracs2332]

Love from Greece man. My respect for you and your work keeps growing the more I hear from you. Glad you exist

[@tylerdurden8584]

ekeiiiii!!

[@bracs2332]

Αγάπη μόνο παίδες!

[@Weatherman07]

Πάλι οι ίδιοι. Χάχα.

[@gilone1984]

Hey not to go off subject, but since your from Greece I’m planning a trip with my wife to Greece, just wanted to now is it been crazy lately since there is no gov. Anymore? Are there still tourist going over there? Let me know and don’t be afraid to be honest. Thanks and love from CA all day!!!

[@bracs2332]

@gilbert Martinez We have a gov, not a good one, but when did we ever have a good one? We're full of tourists, there's no real threat for you. Come to Greece, spend money on local shops (not huge multinational companies, chains, huge hotels), help the economy and its people, have fun and enjoy our culture.

[@josephdavis2695]

Jim Dean has been on repeat for me since it dropped. The video is dope too. Been an Ev fan since he looked like a make-a-wish kid with bars.

[@komeofficialchannel]

RESPECT AND LOVE FROM GREECE!!!

[@iankavanagh1385]

Evidence is amazing! Humble AF love his music and always want to write a something after listening to him,, this was 🔥

[@weedallweek]

[@INeverKnewYou158]

Such a gem of an MC carrying the slow flow laid back monotone legacy of GURU & Gangstarr been a fan since i was 17-18 I am 32 & if we counting Dialted Peoples been a fan since i was 14.

[@clevadeva]

Dude has an sick voice and an amazing flow, I rate him!🔥✔️

[@eliwenthome]

Jim Dean gives me that Cats & Dogs vibe, Love it! Peace to Ev & everyone who was apart of the project.

[@martintodd3009]

[@213byron]

Can’t spell VEVO without EV

[@MorningMoonDown]

One of the realest out! been a fan since I first ran across him in 2015. I used to only like rock and metal , reggae, dubstep. Around 17 began my hip hop dive, needless to say REAL hiphop saved my life more than once. Much love from MN❤️‍🔥🤙

[@alexisortega628]

[@ALAMAZAN818]

I’m excited to hear how much praise and love Ev has for Alchemist. It’s rare nowadays to see an artist give credit to other people. The game needs for genuine people like Ev.

Much and Love and Respect EV from sunny CA!

[@frecmenta5114]

Words have power man ! The Bible is the power of God. But we humans down here use words too. They influence our life and we need to listen to the good words on good vibes. Evidence is doing this, he actually is remembering us things we already know, its up to us to act, as his verse says, that we know God's answers already but act like we don't know !

[@RedVogt]

Great interview! 💪💪💪

[@ShadowedSoundsRecords]

so dope his album was great

[@tomhedges3298]

Spit that shit flawlessly

[@JacoxNovak]

[@GoodxJ]

Weather or Not is amazing! Salute EV!

[@reccct]

Much love and respect from Estonia! Keep doing what you do, keep your head up, you’re helping us to do it. Throw It All Away! Like Blueprint said: “rappers dont fall off they just get uninspired, you either too depressed to make an album, or way too broke to put it out”. We hear you turn it all around, into success.

[@gift-cardforanmi3371]

That's why I love this channel very much!

[@FuzzMusic]

Evidence was always a real dude! That's why he is respected by most. He makes real music, personal and creative. Always had a good thing to say! Much love to Ev!

[@TenaciousTomato]

Salute, great interview and performance

[@h0tdish]

Such a professional, love you dude! When I was 17yo one of my best buddies put in my hands the platform cd, got hooked on Ev's delivery right there. Here I am, 20 years later, like the only mc I can relate to and still listen from the ones that survived. You've came too far not to be respected, and drove too far to hear they closed the guestlist ;) From Romania

[@Rebellen007]
